We are tired of
hearing the false information in the news, on the air, about homosexuality, and
cross dressing. Explicitly how God made homosexuals, cross dressers, so He must
have been willing to accept their lifestyle. We are also concerned that many
congregational leaders now accept this false premise, and are telling everyone
homosexuals and cross dressers lifestyles are acceptable to our Heavenly
Father. Let’s look into the Word of God and see what it says.

Homosexuality is a
sin.

Our Heavenly Father told us physical acts between members of
the same sex is a sin, for homosexuality is an abomination to our God. All who
committed these acts under the Old Covenant Law were subject to physical death,
their spiritual being going to Hell, to await our God’s final judgment.

*You shallnot liewith a male as with a woman.
It is an abomination. Lev
18:22 NKJV+

*If a man lies with a male as he
lies with a woman, both of them
have committed an abomination. They
shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. Lev
20:13 NKJV+

*then the Lord knows how to rescue
the godly from trials, and to keep
the unrighteous under punishmentuntil the day of judgment, and
especiallythose who indulge in the
lust of defiling passion and despise authority. 2Pe 2:9-10 ESV+

The physical penalties for many Old Covenant sins ended when
the transition from the Old Covenant to the New Covenant was completed in 70
AD. We are now under the New Covenant of grace which Jesus ushered in when He died
on the cross, as atonement for of our sins. Yet Jesus tells us what was morally
abominable to His Father in the Old Covenant, will be morally abominable to His
Father forever. Jesus clearly warned
us, those who love any abominable
act, which clearly includes homosexuality, more than they love our Savior, will
have a second death. They will be thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone
when Jesus returns.

*But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually
immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall havetheir part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is thesecond death." Rev 21:7-8 NKJV+

Paul clearly tells us, no one who believes homosexual acts
are acceptable to God, and engages in them, will enter the Kingdom of God.

*Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God?
Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.1Co
6:9-10 NASB+

Paul also tells us that even lusting after another of the
same sex is a sin. That homosexuality is a sin for both men and women.

*Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same
way the men also abandoned natural
relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one
another. Men committedindecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. Ro 1:26-27 NIV+

Cross dressing is a
sin.

It is also a sin to desire to be the opposite sex, purposely
dress to look like them, or act like them. Those who try to become like the
opposite sex, including dressing like them, are an abomination to the
Father.

*"A woman shall not wear man's clothing, nor shall a man put on a woman's clothing; for whoever does these
things is an abomination to the Lord
your God. Dt 22:5 NASB+

Jesus
clearly tells us a second time in Revelation, no person will ever enter into
the Kingdom of Heaven who practices any act which is an abomination to our
Heavenly Father. This is while all were living under the New Covenant of
Christ’s grace.

*and nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying, shall ever come into it, but only
those whose names are written in
the Lamb's book of life. Rev 21:27 NASB+

We are all imperfect
sinners, we all have different weaknesses which will cause us to fall short,
cause us to sin, including the above sexual sins. We will always need the grace
of Jesus to have our sins forgiven, the Spirit to help us as we strive to
overcome our sinful human nature. It will always be hard homosexuals or cross
dressers to give up the desire for their sexual lifestyles. The only way anyone
can overcome the different trials we will face, is with the help of our God.
For with God all things are possible.

*Blessed is
a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lordhas promised to those who love
Him.Ja 1:12 NASB+

*But
Jesus looked at them and said, "With
men it is impossible, but
not with God; for with God all things are possible."Mk
10:27 NKJV+

We must be prepared
for the leaders the homosexuals and cross dressers will seek out to reinterpret
the Word for them. Leaders who will attempt to make homosexual and cross
dressing lifestyles compatible with and acceptable to the Word of God.

*For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine.
Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itchingears want to hear. They will turn
their ears away from the truth and turn
aside to myths. 2Ti 4:3-4 NIV+

*Rather,
we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do
we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the
sight of God. 2Co 4:2 NIV+

Yet Jesus told us in
very blunt and extreme language, that we must give up our human will, and
accept the will of our Heavenly Father, to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
And anyone who loves their sinful sexual lifestyle more than Jesus, is not
worthy of Him.

*And if your
eye causes you to sin,pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God
with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire--Mk 9:47 NKJV*

*And he
who does not takehis cross and follow after Me is not
worthy of Me.Matt
10:38 NKJV+

We will always have to live with, deal with homosexuals, and
cross dressers in this present generation. And we are to love all people, pray
for all people, do good unto all people, this includes homosexuals and cross
dressers. That they may turn away from their sins, come to Jesus, have all
their sins forgiven, and become children of God, our brothers and sisters.

*"But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless
those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.Lk 6:27-28 NKJV+

Yet our Father would not have us bound together with any
unbelievers, including those who believe that engaging in homosexuality and
cross dressing is not a sin. We should find, only be part of a fellowship, that
loves our God, that follows His will. And also accurately follow the truth of God’s Word, and denounce any who
would stray from it.

*Do not be bound together with
unbelievers; for what partnership
have righteousness and lawlessness,
or what fellowship has light with darkness?2Co 6:14 NASB+

*Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need
to be ashamed, accurately handling the word
of truth.2Ti 2:15 NASB+

All who hear
the Word of God and keep it are blessed. Those who overcome their trials, have
an inheritance waiting for them in Heaven. So let it be dear Lord for all of
us.

*But he
said, Yea rather, blessed are they that
hear the word of God, and keep it. Lk 11:28 KJV

*He
who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be
My son.Rev 21:7 NKJV+
